Why do people claiming they don't care always do this? Skip the freaking article and be done with it.

On a similar note, my mom did not call this Nerd Quest because she has no idea about bitcoin.

Same here! I usually end up describing them all as relatives.

It should resume the download. Something wrong in your case. I suggest you just copy from a friend who have downloaded it.

> we're all just older now

This is it. I think people don't realize they've grown up and what they found funny when playing DN as a child is simply not funny anymore. After all kids are easily amused.

I stopped recently. I find the news are always late due to moderation, and there are just way too many 3-5 Funny than I'd like.

Plus I believe anything you can find there, also has been posted here.

By URL. Try submitting a URL you already see and you'll be redirected to that submission instead.

More and more reddit stuff leaking into HN these days.

And uh, please, NSFW tag. 1 pagescroll down and it's boobies.

I don't really know who he is, but he make some very convincing arguments.

tl;dr anyone? Arch is the only distro I use but never heard of this before.

If you want Reddit, you go to Reddit. Why must HN become one?

I can't keep up with Reddit. Too much noise. Good you have time to. HN currently give ~80-100 RSS items daily to me which is good enough to keep me from surfing all day, and still keep up with latest tech news.

It had details on how they exploited it.

True. I was asking for a good hosting solution in Kohana forums[1], PHPFog was mentioned a few times and Lucas went there to offer us direct access (skip the invite-friends part). He is indeed very active and kind.

If you just want to rip 3 sentences from pg article, without adding anything, why bother linking to your page?

Apparently you do care enough to post.

Guy seems like the Jon Skeet of Quora.

The only thing I can relate 'everything' with Flash is that everything spikes up. Seeing this demo I noticed no big spikes on CPU, etc.

There's a bug though. If you click on first/last planet then the arrow will not appear at all. Naturally you expect right arrow when clicking the first planet. Vice versa.

I find your sample harder to read. Reading the current line I easily get distracted by the next, either because it's too close or too bold.

Thing is it's mostly subjective, so YMMV.

I used to want this feature. Then I realized it's nice to be forced to wade through bad/low vote comments. Sometimes I even find them interesting.

With sorting the higher will be higher (people sort and agree with the higher voted comments, hence voting them up again) and lower remains unread.

Slightly OT, how do they do it on TV shops where they put a lot of TVs to form a big screen? How are the images split? Can I do it with any TV?

I think it's obvious you assume everyone knows Gabe's personality. I for one only heard his name in news. Never seen his picture, read his interviews, etc.

Is this serious article or belong to ONION category? Clicking the provided steam link in TFA will only show Steam app store main page.

I hope this is not a serious article. They seriously think people take their time to fill legit birthday dates online? 1st January is usually default. The thing people usually pick randomly is the year since the default is usually too young.

Nice but I find it troubling to give "bite your tongue" as advice. There are a lot more safer way to incite pain such as pinching your arms. Tongue biting?

Seriously cool!

The dataset is 280 GB, and they also provide a 10,000 songs (1.8 GB) version for a "quick taste".

Your point is?

Basecamp is awesome if a lot of people involved are non-technical. They tend to get dizzy looking at Jira/Trac.

Self-sustaining pest control robots. No need to bother about their maintenance. Just let it loose and have a lot less pests.

I think I first heard it from Robbin Williams stand-up:

    God gave you a penis and a brain, and only enough blood to run one at a time

Any video hunters out there to provide the link? Also another variation:

    God gave us 2 heads and just enough blood to use one at a time
